We will remember 2020 as the year of the unexpected. A year of personal and professional growth. And a reminder that no moment or outcome is ever promised.

In many ways, I’ll forever be inspired by how admirably our industry rose to the challenge of collaboration in the face of unprecedented physical limitations. Behind every accomplishment and breakthrough were teams that worked nonstop and found a way forward despite the difficulties. As a direct result of these efforts, 5G is better positioned than ever.

Today, there continues to be an industry-wide race to be first, to take market share, and enter new markets. We see a persistent pressure to minimize costs and, with that, an emerging interest in the power of automation to take services to new heights.

Spirent has spent years preparing for this very moment. While our heritage is in the lab, our place today is by our customers’ side, supporting their entire product lifecycle as a trusted partner. Easing the burden of relentless testing demands and new network dynamics. Protecting user experiences and assuring service delivery to expand addressable markets. At every turn, we seek to introduce simplicity and help customers plot the best way forward.
